- This article argues that interpreting France’s policy at the Paris Peace Conference as a failed bid to destroy German power and to secure a dominant position in the post-1918 European political order obscures a trans-Atlantic conception of future international order within the Clemenceau government's programme, which rested on a shared commitment to democracy between France, Great Britain and the United States. The aim - anticipating geo-political developments during and after the Second World War - was to enmesh Germany in a new security order that would be underpinned by the superior economic and military resources of the victorious Allied powers.
